My place is surrounded by big second growth trees, yet close and easy access to the highway and close to the ocean. You’ll love my place because of the ambiance and the outdoors space. My place is good for couples, solo adventurers, and furry friends (pets). Lots of parking with an outdoor firepit. Bring your own firewood or 5 dollars an armful

Francis was a great host, he was very responsive via text and came to check on us shortly after we arrived. He also recommended a couple good hikes in the area. The cabin was exactly as shown in the pictures and as described. We had a very comfortable and quiet weekend away.

Great little cabin

HeatherOctober 2016

We stayed in Frank's cabin for two nights and absolutely loved our time there. It was nice to get out of a wet tent for a few days! The cabin was just as described and shown in the photos. Super quiet and relaxing. We appreciated that it was pet friendly and very affordable.

KatlinNovember 2016

I loved the instant booking option, the price was good and everything left out so I could get the fire going and make up the beds. There was no address, so I drove around a bit guessing the location, found it and settled in. Since communication was a challenge with cell service limited and host in and out , so we're we, a little map and user manual on the table would be helpful. Great place!

susan November 2016

We throughly enjoyed our stay and loved our greeting by Banjo, the dog. The cabin was very cozy and warm with the fire going and we loved the feel of being in the woods.

MeganNovember 2016

What a lovely little cabin. We had such a great time. Cozy and relaxing. Great place to unwind!

KalinaNovember 2016

Francis called to answer all my questions prior to our arrival, expressing regret that as he was out of town, he wouldn't be there personally to greet us. He was warm and wonderfully welcoming. The cabin is easy to find and in a perfect location for the Horne Lake Caves, where we were visiting.

celestinaNovember 2016

This cabin is exactly as described and pictured. My husband and I loved this stop because it reminded us of camping excursions of our younger days. Thank you for providing the wood for us to have a wood stove fire! Be prepared to use an outhouse to go to the bathroom (this did not bother us at all). Also bring your own sleeping gear and towels unless you have time to do the laundry before you leave. There is an incredibly friendly and adorable dog who lives on the premises who we loved to hang out with. Overall this was a pleasant and relaxing place to stay.

Our cottage is a stones throw to family-friendly activities, nightlife, and the town of Qualicum Beach . Our cottage is built for couples, solo adventurers, business travellers, and furry friends (pets). Recently renovated to suit everyone's tastes.

Stone's throw cottage retreat is a newly renovated detached cottage nestled in old growth forest on a beautiful acreage in Qualicum Beach BC. There is plenty of privacy from the owners residents. It is located close to the beach, shopping, Coombs Market, restaurants, walking trails and fresh seafood. We are approximately 36 minutes from the Nanaimo ferry, 10 minutes to the town of Qualicum Beach and 20 minutes to Parksville.
We are pet friendly with an attached side yard for the fur kids to run about safely. There is also a covered area in the fence as well to enjoy the outdoors no matter what the weather has in store.
Guests have access to the entire cottage, including the attached dog yard and a few walking trails through the property to view the natural old growth forest.
We live on the property just far enough down the lane way for immediate response to any help needed, but far enough away for your privacy. We leave interaction with the guests up to the guest. We would love to meet everyone but understand some just want a quiet private escape and don't want to be bothered. That is fine too. We want you to enjoy the cottage how ever you see fit.

Our neighborhood consists of very private acreages in a peaceful setting. Just a short bike ride or walk down the road will take you to a peaceful walking/bicycle trail in a provincial park area.
A vehicle is needed in this area. Car rental companies can be recommended and airport pick ups can be provided for a charge.
Property owners are not responsible for any injury or loss during your vacation and or stay this includes children and pets.
No wipes, sanitary napkins or anything else other than toilet paper are to be flushed down the toilet. Septic systems cannot handle these types of materials. If caught doing so you will be billed for any repairs needed.
No parties or loud music. Please respect those around you.

It felt like the hosts were excited to have us here and that was really welcoming. The beds were really cozy and the rooms felt clean and looked after. We had a really lovely time and hope we can come back again for another occasion!

NinaOctober 2016

Great hosts, went out of there way to provide some extra's, cool place in the forrest.

RyanSeptember 2016

We had a wonderful experience at Stone's Throw Cottage retreat. The cottage has been recently renovated, is fully equipped, and covered with small lovely details that make your stay truly amazing! The owners are very helpful and responsive. We will be back for sure and have no hesitation to recommend this Cottage for a long weekend, a week or a longer stay.

CatalinaSeptember 2016

It was a great time to stay in Stone`s Throw cottage. Thank you very much. Everything is so lovely, all the pictures are real. A very warm personal welcome and a lot of cutes details. We missed nothing. We have been there with 3 persons so we have had much space. A special highlight was the great and fantastic barbecue. A very nice place to be in quiet neighborhood and not far to Qualicum beach. Nice hosts and recommendable to everybody.

Discount now in effect for snowbirds interested in a weekly or monthly stay. Quiet neighbourhood close to the ocean just off the scenic coastal highway.
In winter you can Ski Mt Washington an hour away and walk the beach the next day.

The room has a good queen size bed, a dresser, 2 bedside tables with lamps and a luggage rack. A chair and small desk.
There is a half fridge in the room. The bathroom may be shared with one other person.
For a short term stay there is a fold up 3" foam pad that can accommodate an extra adult or child if needed.
Breakfast is a Do It Yourself affair with toast, cereal, coffee or tea available. Lately there is an abundance of home made jams.
Kitchen use should be limited to the coffee maker, kettle toaster and microwave. If staying for longer than a couple of nights the use of the kitchen may be negotiated.
There are decks front and back so visitors can hang out with us or pick a different spot for privacy.
One of the reasons we love to do Air Bnb is meeting and having a visit with new people as if they were visiting family. Of course you will explore the area and do your own thing but you are also welcome to hang out and relax.
Since the summer of 2015 we have welcomed new friends from Montreal, Australia, Reno Nevada, Germany, Italy, France, Switzerland, Australia, the lower mainland and Alberta. Being located mid island we are a little away from the tourist scene but not far from many points of interest.
We are generally around in the evenings to help you with recommendations. We have projects that we work on from home in the mornings and love exploring the Island ourselves in the afternoons.

There is a unique path through the blackberry bushes that takes you to the ocean. The closest beaches to us are rocky but great for fishing, walks,and watching wildlife.
We love the Sandbar Cafe for a great meal with a view...just 2 km away.
In summer, Qualicum Bay has an Ice Cream place, Henri's Kitchen, the Tidal Taco shop and the Karavan Kanteen a mobile with Ukrainian food and gourmet burgers.
Bowser has a delightful cafe.
Lots of parking and you will need a vehicle to get to most places around but the ocean is only about a 10 minute walk.
This is a great location for either heading to Tofino or returning from there.
We are only 35 minutes to Courtenay and an hour from Nanaimo. Qualicum Beach is about 20 minutes away.
We have 2 tiny dogs who stay home when we are working. Lilly is 11 years old and will bark when you first arrive but after a good sniff of your feet she will be your friend. Penny is still a puppy and will be shy at first. She has also been known to try to get out the front door so please make sure not to give her an opening.
We are 420 friendly and have great smoking decks.

Maggie's responses to my request were very quick. She was very welcoming and I felt at ease as soon as arriving. Very easy to communicate with. Her home is lovely and very comfortable. The location was great - outside of city noises. Very scenic area with decent, local options for food. Highly recommend.

MarySeptember 2016

Maggie went out of her way to let me check in early so I could go fishing on the beach. The location was perfect for my little fishing adventure, only a short drive away. The room was great, including wifi and a TV. The bathroom was handy with all the amenities. It was nice to get up to coffee and toast. Maggie and Art were welcoming hosts, but their little dogs Penny and Lily were also delightful. It was my first Airbnb experience but definitely not my last.

RobinAugust 2016

Very nice and big house close to the highway and the seaside. The bedroom in comfy and clean as it is for the bathroom. Maggie is a very nice host. She welcomed us, showed us the apartment and she provided us a good breakfast in the morning. Positive experience. We would recommend it.

AlessandroAugust 2015

Maggie and Art made us very welcome. The room was spacious, the bed was comfortable and we were made extremely welcome in their home. Wish we had more time to stay.

MartinSeptember 2016

Pleasant and friendly. Maggie is definitely a pro at this!

LornaSeptember 2016

My sister and I enjoyed our stay with Maggie for a night. In the evening we walked down to the ocean from her place and then after that we played a game of cards outside on her deck. We had a comfortable sleep listening to the crickets. In the morning we had coffee and she offered us plum jam that she had made. Thank you!

KristaSeptember 2016

We spent two nights in Maggie's place. Our room had everything we need for a nice stay - mini- fridge, comfy bed and good pillows. A fan was provided as well but we didn't use it. Wi-Fi was excellent. We enjoyed chatting with Maggie and her husband as well as picking delicious blackberries just in their backyard! Two cute little dogs always greeted us at the front door. The taco place right on the beach was excellent for lunch. Their fish and prawn burritos were so good!! Forgot to mention that every morning Maggie made a pot of coffee. In short, we had a lovely stay which was an excellent value for the money.

Access the beach via our private trail. The cabin has a toilet and sink indoors and a FABULOUS heated outdoor shower attached! The cabin is perfect for 2 people or a couple with one child. Enjoy the lovely ocean view deck!

The cabin is comfortable and cozy. Located on the "wooded" side of the property it has a magical feel to it. The heated outdoor shower turns a basic shower into a beautiful experience in Nature.
Trail to the beach and opportunity for beach fires.(unless a ban is in effect) Fenced yard for the dog.
We are always happy to interact with our guests as each situation dictates. If you are looking for privacy, we'll respect that. If you want to know more about the area and things to do, we will try our best to steer you in the right direction!

The neighborhood is very quiet and friendly. We have neighbours but enjoy an exceptional amount of privacy. The cabin is detached from the main house and has a private deck for exclusive use of guests.
You need a car, bicycle or vehicle to easily get here and get around. You can do long walks on the beach in both directions. It is also a lovely walk into "downtown" Bowser, which has a coffee shop, grocery store and many other interesting shops.
We allow dogs but expect that people keep them under control and pick up after them. We have a dog, so any visiting dogs must be appropriately social.

We only got to meet Karen on our trip and she was just lovely. Very easy to talk to and made us feel very welcome. The cabin was just what we needed to get some r&r by the beach. The timing worked out perfectly because the fire bans on the beach had just been lifted so that was a pleasant surprise for us! We both loved the outdoor shower as well, very nice and refreshing to be able to shower in the outdoors.

MelissaSeptember 2016

We had a wonderful stay at Karen and Cathy's cabin! They are both wonderful people! The view is really stunning and together with the beach, the mountains and the eagles it filled our first days there and we spent a lot of time just watching this big nature. The cabin is sweet, cozy and super clean and we loved the shower with view into their lovely garden! As we had enough relaxation, Karen and Cathy had plenty of ideas what to do close to Bowser and thanks to them we had some fantastic hikes and excursions and also great food! We are already looking forward to come back!

BettinaMay 2016

This was a fantastic place! We stayed here as part of our honeymoon and couldn't have had a better place to rest--the place was spotless, the ocean was beautiful, the outdoor shower was warm and Karen and Cathy were welcoming and friendly!

AdrienneAugust 2016

We didn't meet Karen and Cathy only their nice and her family. They all were so friendly. Karen send us all the important informations we need! The cabin was clean and the beach was beautiful, perfect for a couple of relaxing days. My highlight was the shower. It's was so holiday for me. Thank you for be a part of our Canada Trip. Marina & Felix

MarinaAugust 2016

I visited this lovely private cabin on June 2nd and 3rd. Prior to that, Karen and Cathy were prompt in responding to my questions. I was pleasantly surprised to find a small fridge and a coffee maker (and a small microwave)- unexpected but a nice bonus. Karen and Cathy were very accommodating, friendly, and provided useful suggestions about the surrounding area. I was looking for privacy, peace and quiet and this was the right place!! So nice to walk down the trail to the ocean in the evenings (glass of wine in hand) and in the mornings (cup of coffee in hand). The outdoor shower was great fun - hot water almost instantly. I appreciated also having access to WiFi. I was relieved to see a bedside lamp so that I could read in bed! I would happily return to this cute and comfortable cabin in the woods. Thank you Karen and Cathy for a wonderful two days and two nights!

StewartJune 2015

Wow! What an amazing place to stay, just wish we could've been there longer. The room is comfortable and clean, but what makes the stay is the private beach! A 1 minute walk down to the beach where we spent a night making garlic clams and then smores on a fire, washed down with wine while enjoying the beautiful view. In the morning can wash off the campfire smell with an outdoor shower. Bowser is a little village with everything you need and a small farmers market which we enjoyed. Would recommend a visit to the local Deep Bay Marine Station.

MaureenJune 2015

Our 2 nights stay at the cabin was short but very nice. It's a beautiful place to stay and my wife and I would definitely like to come back. Both, Karen and Cathy are warm and welcoming hosts. On the second evening when we arrived after a full day hike, they mentioned that they had a beach fire in the early evening which we could start up again. So we had our dinner at the beach with a small fire and a beautiful view.

A warm welcome to our beautiful Sweet Escape! Beautifully decorated, your home away from home will relax you from the first moment you step in the door. A beach side community with pool and hot tubs. A complimentary bottle of wine awaits you.

The cottage has 2 master suites with queen pillow top mattresses, fine down comforters with a choice of memory foam or down pillows. In the living room you will find a deluxe fold out air bed that accommodates two. Our living room has a stone fireplace for cooler days with flat screen TV, Bose sound system, blue-ray DVD player with movies, books and games to play. The rustic solid acacia dining room table seats 8 on recycled teak or leather chairs. A fire-fly light hangs from the ceiling. On the patio you will find the barbeque, table seating for six and a lounger as well as wicker sofa to breathe in the sea air. New!! The tennis court is open.
It is only a few steps to the pool and clubhouse which has exercise equipment and a pool table. A few houses away is the gorgeous beach. The beach area has a fire-pit, sandy space and steps to the ocean. You will find everything you need to make your stay a memorable one, gourmet kitchen with induction range with other stainless appliances and stunning granite. The bathrooms have unusual granite counters, heated floors and towel racks, decorated in an classic yet modern style. The garage has 2 bicycles and helmets for your use and pleasure.
We will contact each other via e-mail. Once booked you will receive a Welcome Booklet with access codes and other important information.

The village of Qualicum Beach is a charming yet well equipped small town. Small gourmet restaurants, Qualicum Foods for groceries and quaint shops will delight you. A scallop farm is within walking distance of your cottage which can provide the finest varieties of this little ocean gem fresh from the ocean. Many pubs dot the Oceanside route. The market at Coombs with the famous "goats on the roof" goodies including fine cheeses, and awesome bakery will meet all your needs. For those who are adventurous, the Horne Lake Caves are very close with rappeling or tiny tunnels to squeeze through or there are cave tours that are more open and large. Close by are winery tours, mini-golf, horse-back riding, boat rentals, parks and activities to discover your own favourites. There is skiing at Mt. Washington only an hour away. Qualicum offers something for everyone.
You will require a vehicle to access the cottage. You will have your own private garage.
The pool and hot tubs are open from June 15th to September 15th. The new tennis court is open!! Tennis rackets and balls are in the pantry.

This place is a dream home! It has everything you need and more! It certainly was a sweet escape from cold and snowy Calgary. Linda was always quick to respond to our emails. The house is brand new and is part of a small beach house community. During our stay it was extremely quiet and peaceful. We shared the house with a second couple for a few days and both bedrooms are equally beautiful with comfy beds and bathrooms. The warm floors in the bathrooms were an extra bonus. Qualicum Beach is a cute town who has chosen not to allow big box stores to establish. It is centrally located on the Island and we were able to visit nearby towns and still return back to "our" home at night. We would recommend this place to anyone who can appreciate a quality home.

MarionApril 2015

Beautiful home - worked out great for our golf getaway!

LindaSeptember 2016

Chris and Linda were very accommodating and answered emails/questions very promptly. Their cottage is absolutely beautiful. Qualicum Landing is 10 mins north of Qualicum beach, with a private tennis court, heated pool, amenities building and oceanfront properties, we couldn't ask for anything more. The buildings are quite new, this unit was spotless and nicely appointed. Our family of 5 slept very comfortably. We enjoyed having two bathrooms and in room laundry, as well as a gourmet kitchen, wifi, a beautiful dining area inside and out. Private BBQ made meals on the patio easy. We did not want to leave!

DanielleAugust 2016

Great stay, Property was very well equipped and luxurious. Pool unfortunately was not open but will open June 15th. Stunning Property.

MattJune 2015

A beatifully furnished home. The discription was accurate. It was a purfect home for family vacation.

AdamJune 2016

It was an awesome place! The beds were very comfy and our younger son said that the air bed was great as well. It had all the kitchen gadgets necessary to cook. The patio area was great. We loved walking down to the beach each day to look for marine life. We would definitely rent this place again if we return to Vancouver Island.

RobynApril 2016

My husband and I have traveled the world over many years. We've pretty much seen it "all" in our rental accommodations. The most common problem is that people over-promise and under-deliver. What a delight to arrive at Linda and Chris's place after receiving perfect directions - something we definitely don't take for granted. The gated community is really attractive and the house was impeccably clean. Having owned a cleaning business, I don't very often say that a house is impeccable but this one is. You can tell that Linda and Chris have traveled themselves because so many things that are obvious to a traveler isn't always obvious to hosts. Details like sufficient hangers, basic food supplies like spices, oil, etc. and written instructions on how to use the TV and DVD player are just a few examples but there were so many! The first night at the house, my husband and I were literally running around, practically squealing with delight at all the things that were done right. For the first time in years, I slept without my heavy duty earplugs as it was so quiet. Wow! Now that's a treat. Yet, we also felt like it was super convenient to every place we wanted to visit and we even drove to Chemainus to see live theatre. We loved the location because it was convenient yet we felt like we had our own private sanctuary. We even were able to play tennis four times which was a huge treat for us. Linda and Chris are the penultimate hosts and after having nine years experience of renting similar accommodations, Sweet Escape is truly in a class of its own.

Jan May 2016

Excellent location with everything you need for an awesome holiday. Lots of room for the 4 of us.....2 adults, 2 teenagers. Community is quiet and clean. The house was spotless. The instructions and detailed package clearly outlined everything we needed to make our arrival and stay convenient and stress free. We'll definitely return. Thanks!

We loved staying at Duck Hollow. We travel a lot and often have negative comments about places that we have stayed at. This one was pretty well perfect. As I mentioned to Traycie, the sliding door screen has a problem. She said it was on the top of her "to do" list. Since the place has great heat pump air conditioning, and a nice ceiling fan, we could keep the windows and doors closed. It was a hot day. Traycie was there to greet us which was wonderful. Everything we needed (corkscrew, knife, cutting board) were all there. Had great coffe available in the cottage in AM.

AllenAugust 2015

Beautiful and peaceful location that is better in real-life than the pictures! The place was incredibly clean and tidy. We loved our stay and would come back in a heartbeat.

JustinMarch 2016

Great time at Duck Hollow! Simple yet comfortable cabin on the lake. Easy check in and check out. Close enough to many island attractions or easy to sit and relax on the deck.

SpringApril 2016

Duck Hollow rules! We loved it. Traycie and Kevin were super helpful and accommodating. The cabin is cleaner and nicer than the photos show and the pond is beautiful. We grilled bacon and eggs for breakfast on the deck and brought rocks from Washington to skip in the pond. It was perfect. Walked around Spider Lake on a beautiful sunny day- wish we could have spent more time there. Vancouver Island is such a special place, we can't wait to come back. Highly recommend- 5 Stars!

AdrienneFebruary 2016

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Duck Hollow.The warmth of the sun in the morning, the sounds of the birds, the many dragonflies hunting just at the surface of the pond. it was lovely and relaxing to arrive back here after a day of exploring, hiking and swimming. One evening we watched a pair of deer graze close to our deck, the next day a heron landed in the pond. The accommodations were clean and as described. We had a number of very hot days where the AC was very much appreciated. Traycie is a very accommodating host who was there to answer all our questions. The only thing that was an issue was the sliding door to the deck which was difficult to move.

The little cottage by a gorgeous small and quiet pound was very welcoming and cosy. The communication with Traycie went very well and when we opened the door everything was very clean. The kitchen is fully equipt and we most liked the breakfast on the porch in the sun. Qualicum Bay is a nice place to stay with all the thing you need just aroung the corner in Qualicum Beach. Definitely a stay to look back on with a great smile!

JoyceJuly 2015

Duck hollow was the most adorable little cabin (surprisingly spacious inside) and had everything we needed to enjoy our stay, including ducks in the pond! Traycie was flexible with our arrival time and greeted us when we arrived. It was the perfect location to explore the area including Horne lake caves and cathedral grove. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a quiet retreat on the island.

We are close to the beach, awesome hiking trails, Deep Bay Marina, Denman/Hornby Ferries, Goats on the Roof, Cathedral Grove, Mount Washington, the Comox airport (35 min), lots eating spots, day trip to Tofino, Horne Lake Caves, golf courses and more. You’ll love the magical ambiance. It's is cozy one bedroom but we have a an airbed to sleep two more. Or... bring a tent so the kids can campout on the lawn right beside you.

We will give you all the privacy you want or on the other hand we love meeting new people and would love to get to know you around the fire pit. You let us know how we can make your stay just exactly what you are looking for.

It felt silly giving 5 stars for everything, but this place was beyond my expectations! Leah and Brendan are two incredibly sweet, kind hearted, and friendly people. Their property is like something you would expect traveling to a resort. They respect personal privacy perfectly while also being tremendously friendly. The cabin is clean, comforting, and beyond beautiful! I do not have enough great things to say about this place!

Bowser- a gem of a community. 15 min. from Qualicum beach, 20 min. to Coombs, 30 min. to Parksville or Courtenay. A perfect home base to explore the mid-island from this self contained suite with private entrance. Private outside sitting area.

We loved it here! The backyard/garden area is beautiful. There is a path right next to the suite that leads down to a small ocean front where we watched the sunset. Linda was very kind to us and even offered to draw us a map to a swim spot known only by locals. Would recommend this lovely spot!

SamJuly 2015

We had a great experience at Linda's place. Although we arrived late, we had no problem getting into the place. It was clean and just what we were looking for for the night.

CandaceAugust 2015

Linda's place was quiet, clean, and exactly as described. It gave us a great base for exploring the Qualicum/Coombs area and our dog had a fun time playing with Callie, the owners dog. We even decided to cook dinner in the totally adequate and equip little kitchen. Overall a great experience.

JesseSeptember 2016

We booked last minute and were very appreciative that Linda was able to accommodate our request. We didn't get a chance to meet her, but she left us a very helpful welcome sheet. Her place was as it looked in the photos. It was simple, quaint, and had the essentials we needed.

WendyMarch 2016

The suite was just as described. Quiet and comfortable, and a great location that's not far from the water. Linda provided us with everything we needed for our stay and we'd happily return another time.

ErinOctober 2015

We really enjoyed our stay here, Its was cozy and quaint. Linda is lovely. We were very comfortable.

TrishJune 2015

We arrived for the labour day long weekend and had a fantastic stay in this very cozy and recommended suite. It is a place to relax, with a very close distance to the beach, Qualicum, Courtney and Comox. We were surrounded by nature, as there is plenty to see. The suite was very clean, and complete with all what you need to make your breakfast, complementary delicious coffee beans and jam. I thank you very much Linda for been there for when we needed information about the area selected fish and chips, and places to visit. Thank you, thank you!

JorgeSeptember 2015

Linda's studio was very cozy and quaint just as expected! I didn't get to spend much time exploring the area, but this was a perfect stop for my boyfriend and I during our road trip across the island. It is decorated very nicely :) The place was very private and clean, and stocked with coffee and cooking supplies. We very much enjoyed the quiet, serene space.

For large groups or a private nest for the kids, there is a separate bunkhouse, that contains a queen size bunk bed. This area can sleep 4 kids. It has its own bathroom and TV with DVD player so the youngsters can hang out. This is particularly convenient for those parents that want to have some alone time.
Other amenities include a washer and dryer for clean clothes while on vacation and parking for two cars. But perhaps the best thing about a stay here is the beach! Mere steps from the door and you'll be on one of the prettiest stretches of sand Qualicum Bay has to offer. Beach combing, swimming, sand castle building and shell collection are some of the many beach activities. Launch your paddle board or kayak right from your front door.
On nights you don't want to cook, head into town for your pick of eateries. There are many small quality restaurants in the area, Henry’s, Crown and Anchor Pub, Bean Counters coffee shop and an Ice cream shop a short stroll away.
For those that want other things to do there are the Horn Lake Caves, Big Qualicum River Fish Hatchery, antique stores, Spider Lake, Fanny Bay, Deep Bay, easy day trip to Tofino or nearby Courtenay, and many hiking and mountain bike trails.
You are able to access the whole house. Access to use the bunkhouse must be established prior to ensure access.
The on Island contact, Denise, or myself will be available to you 24/7 to make your stay as pleasant as possible, should you require anything we may have forgotten.

Very accurate. View view view.....

The cottage was perfect. Ultra organized, ideally stocked and very clean. Any amenity one could think of was available. Children's beach toys, magazines, books, kitchenware, extra blankets, pillows - all available for use and in excellent condition. It felt like all the details were taken care of - even the Ipod docking station (: The view unsurpassed - lots of sea life and a beautiful beach to enjoy. The neighbours was also ultra friendly. Everything so lovely. A highly recommended experience for those seeking a private, natural retreat.

Just back from a wonderful stay at Sun, Sand and Beach, what a fantastic location! Stunning views! Blew us away as we walked in through the house to see the red deck chairs on the deck with the beach right there. Wonderfully clean and very well stocked. Absolutely perfect place to base and show my UK visitors what a beautiful part of the world we live. Thank you Gary for the opportunity to stay and play at Sun, Sand and Beach.

SuzieAugust 2016

The house was absolutely beautiful and lived up to photo expectations. This is the perfect place to stay when you need a quiet get away and some quality R&R. My family had a great time and loved being right on the water. Thanks Gary!

DianeSeptember 2016

Gary's house was clean and comfortable, and we really enjoyed our stay. The location is very peaceful and quiet with really nothing to do but walk on the beach and enjoy the view--since that was exactly what we wanted, we were very happy. We were a party of three: one adult, a teen and a tween, and the bedroom in the house and the two-bed bunkhouse were just the right size for us.

JenniferApril 2016

The stay at the house was wonderful! The view at the ocean every morning was amazing. The house itself is as described. Nothing fancy, but has everything you need and is cozy. We absolutely enjoyed our stay!

KalleMarch 2016

Absolutely loved this place and would most definitely go back. So cozy and beautiful, close to everything one needs yet so private, we want to make this a yearly event.

Rick and Shannon were very welcoming, and recommended places to visit around the area. The place was amazing - both inside and outside. Beautiful view, decks, and outdoor space. Very quiet, clean and spacious inside. The breakfast and fruits were such a treat! Thank you.

AlexAugust 2015

We spent magical couple of nights at this stunning location. The house is (URL HIDDEN) much thought has gone into the design, with loads of space in an idyllic setting. Everything was exactly as described, only better. Eagles in the trees, seals on the beach (a short, but steep walk). Rick and Shannon were very welcoming hosts and full of good advice on the local area. I would not hesitate to recommend this place for anyone looking for a few days to unwind in a restful and beautiful spot.

SimonJuly 2016

Shannon is the warmest and friendliest host that I have met. I felt like I was staying at a friends place. The property is peaceful and beautiful. I loved waking up to the bunnies outside my bedroom window every morning. We were surprised by a visit from a mother and her baby seal as we approached the ocean. My sister, my nephew and I had a great time barbecuing on the deck. It is a great place to stay! Thanks Shannon and Rick!

LeoncieAugust 2015

Rick and Shannon are wonderful hosts - friendly, welcoming, offered lots of info about the area and interesting things to do nearby. Their home is beautiful and offers guests a private area of the house and a huge garden with ocean-view decks, bbq, evening fire, fruit trees and more. Shannon bakes goodies for breakfast. We enjoyed the location, the accommodation and the hosts. Just the best!

DianeAugust 2016

Shannon did everything needed to make our family of four's stay wonderful, and we included a 6 year old and an 80 year old. We felt cared for as if by a cheerful and very practical old friend. The log house is beautiful amid gigantic conifers and apples, plums, and figs, all laden with fruit. From the deck take a steep descent to a pristine beach of shiny polished volcanic stones and tidal pools. The view from the deck, of an incredible blue sea brimmed by other islands, is spectacular. With so much to see and do elsewhere on the island, the temptation may be to instead stay barbecuing (or meditating, as the case may be) on the deck, or follow Shannon's dirt-road directions to a nearby lake park in the woods, water pure enough to drink--so said the ranger, to swim or paddle board. Qualicum gave us quick access to Route 4 to Port Alberni, Ucluelet, and Tofino, a must-do drive: bring your swim suit for the many lakes or ocean beaches, walk in a rainforest, go marine life watching. This was one of the most pleasant places we ever stayed in, one we'd love to return to.

NaAugust 2016

We only met Shannon as Rick was away at the time of our visit. She was absolutely lovely and we chatted with her most days. Shannon would check on our adventures and how things had gone which made it feel like we were staying with friends, not a host. She was very easy and we enjoyed Tinks who made friends with Alex our eldest daughter. This was our last venue on our trek across BC and it did not disappoint. The views were fabulous especially at sunset, it was great having various birds flying around the garden and bunnies & dogs running around. The apartment was great, well presented and equipped, was as described and suited our purposes perfectly. We did venture down to the shore (a bit tricky) but tended to sit around the garden as it was so peaceful. Breakfast was included at this venue and an array of choices were provided. We all appreciated Shannon's natural friendliness on our last few days in Canada. Thanks for everything, we hope we didn't wake you when we left for our ferry in the early hours! Cheers

OlwenAugust 2016

We loved Rick and Shannon's place! It was a perfect island getaway for four gals looking for a relaxing weekend. We had full use of the beautiful backyard and enjoyed the bbq and outdoor fire pit. We highly recommend! Tip: We suggest booking the entire place (both the hornby and texada suites) so that you can have full use of the indoor common space.

Driftwood Sun is located minutes to the Beach, Town of Qualicum, and surrounded by lush forest with a beautifully manicured private yard. Enjoy the modern amenities inside this beautiful home. Pet Friendly, BBQ, full kitchen, laundry.

Driftwood Sun hosts beautifully maintained Gardens with fruit and Vegetable Garden with Fresh berries available to guests.
It is a cottage home, with private ponds and Gardens for guests use. There is a groundskeeper living area to the side of the property.
Your host, Krysta, will meet with you to check you in and welcome you to the area. Please feel free to contact me during your stay for any further information.

Driftwood sun is a quiet country retreat, located just outside of the Town of Qualicum Beach. It is close to beach and the amenities of town.
Enjoy the tranquility of sitting in the gardens, enjoy the fire ring in the evenings under the stars. The house has heated polished cement floors, and is easily accessible to wheelchairs.

The Driftwood Sun home is large, modern bungalow just outside of Qualicum Beach in the Dashwood area. The home was very clean, tastefully decorated, with high ceilings and excellent amenities including a large modern kitchen, modern bathroom, comfortable queen bed, and large yard. The yard is shared with some adorable wild lop-eared rabbits who like to hop around the yard nibbling grass. Only 5 minutes away from downtown Qualicum Beach by car makes it a great location that is tucked away in a calm and private setting.. Krysta is a very friendly and gracious host. She made us feel welcome and was happy to accommodate our pre-arrival requests. We had planned to stay at Driftwood Sun for 4 weeks, but due to unforeseen circumstances we had to leave Qualicum Beach early and Krysta was very understanding of our situation. Overall we had a great experience both with our host and with the location and highly recommend it to future travelers.

BenSeptember 2015

Krysta was a wonderful host for the Driftwood Sun; she made us feel very welcome by meeting us at the location and arranging to have everything ready for us when we arrived, including having not only basic supplies but little "extras" such as muffins, juice, and milk in the fridge. The Driftwood Sun was absolutely immaculate and exactly as described... actually, it was even better! The amenities were great, the house gorgeous, and the setting peaceful. Perfect!

DeannaSeptember 2015

The house and gardens are gorgeous. Excellent situation (fenced yard, one level living etc.) for two elderly dogs. Nicely defined outdoor spaces and we were encouraged to enjoy the garden berries and greens. Art everywhere was very fun to discover. The house could have been better supplied with basics, and we ran out of a few essentials. Hair dryer was missing. Highway car traffic was intrusive unless sitting by the fountains which drowned it out considerably. Best (only really good ) restaurant is 45 minutes away--Locals (don't miss it!). Enjoyed the Farmers Markets and organic grocery. The caretaker on site was nice to interact with.

JaniceJuly 2016

We celebrated our anniversary at Driftwood Sun and it was absolutely wonderful. Very nice property with a great garden and we enjoyed the additional treats that she left for us, as well as the wildlife company

Ania & DaveJuly 2016

Sam & Krysta had the Villa ready for our arrival and met up with us later in the day to show us around and make sure everything met our needs. They were very welcoming and provided us with lots of information for exploring Qualicum Beach and surrounding area. The gardens were beautiful and we really enjoyed the patio/terrace -- and watching the rabbits! Location was perfect for us -- secluded but close to all amenities/services. Traffic noise from the road was a bit loud at times but most of the day we were away exploring so minor overall when considering the overall experience. Love the openess of the Villa -- lots of space and light, and the ocean theme decor is perfect. Highly recommended and the hosts are amazing -- thanks so much!

LauraAugust 2016

Listing was very accurate. Amazing location and very welcoming. Plate of pastries and small milk and juice in the fridge was a surprising bonus for the morning after our long drive before we had a chance to get groceries. Access to the berry patch was awesome and very tasty :) Krysta and Her husband were very accommodating. Perfect place for my Husband, pug and I!

This Bowser haven, lovingly built by Paul and Laura, features 3 bedrooms, an ocean view living room, open concept kitchen, its very own climbing wall and a path to the beach. We believe you will find it a warm, magical and adventurous spot to stay.

This space is beautifully situated and built to make the most of this stunning coastline. The views are ample and awe-inspiring. The house is built by Paul and Laura and we live in a little cottage on the beach when we rent out the house so we are usually nearby to answer any questions.
Guests will have access to all of the house and the path to the beach. They will have access to the climbing wall as long as Paul is present to oversee the climbing. If Paul is available, this can be arranged at any point in your stay. Please note that Paul is not always available.
You can have as little or as much interaction with Paul and Laura as you wish. We will be usually be living in our cottage on the beach and puttering about in the garden during your stay. If you want peace we will leave you be, or you can have a good thorough discussion with us of all there is to see and do in the area. We have knowledge of walking, running, hiking, kayaking, biking, and sailing in and around this part of Vancouver Island.

Bowser is an incredibly friendly neighbourhood. It has a fantastic coastline and a good assortment of all the basic amenities and a few lovely extras! There is a grocery store, bank, cafe, library, liquor store, post office, pet supply and feed shop (which also sells locally grown farm eggs), fuel, gym, massage therapist, hair dresser and the renowned Salish Sea Market that houses one of the finest collections of local artists on the west coast. And if you can't find what you need here, Qualicum Beach is only 20 minutes south along the coastal road, and the larger town of Courtenay is only 30 minutes north. There is the incredible ski hill of Mount Washington, and hiking trails in Strathcona Park only 45 minutes away. Access to Hornby Island and Denman Island is only 15 minutes away. In this area you really can ski one day and kayak the next.
There is one bus that travels to Courtenay daily and back. Otherwise a car or bike is definitely a better way to get around. Our home is only a 40 minute drive from Comox Airport and a 60 minute drive from Departure Bay Ferry terminal in Nanaimo.
Children under 2 years old are free.

Beautiful house, well equipped, with wonderful views, garden, patio, and direct access to the beach where you can have a nice walk among eagles, seals, deers, crabs.. . No need to move to enjoy the magnificent landscape, outdoor and wildlife! It was great. Our kids didn't want to leave...

DelphineApril 2016

My two friends and I enjoyed a wonderful week of visiting, exploring and relaxing. Laura and Paul's house was a perfect home base for us. We were able to access wonderful restaurants nearby, but also enjoyed the well functioning kitchen and cooked our own meals many times. The owners were away for most of our visit, but our arrival and any further needs were well facilitated by the friendly and helpful neighbours. Enjoyed the natural setting and the abundance of wildlife.

JanetOctober 2016

thank you. We all had a restful time at your beautiful and quiet home. It was the perfect place for our family to spend this precious time together. I couldnt have asked for a better place to be. Those wild sea lions!!!

melanieMarch 2016

The house looked much better than in the photos. It's got a cottage feel to it and is very well maintained. The deck was a great place to relax and enjoy meal times. The kitchen and bathrooms were very well stocked with supplies. The views from the upper loft and the living room were beautiful. The garden was also really nice. The steps leading to the beach are steep but manageable and lead to wonderful views of the ocean, the nearby islands, and also to rock hopping to explore the pools at low tide. Paul and Laura and very warm and generous hosts who made us feel so comfortable. We hope to have the opportunity to return and visit again in the future.

JoshuaAugust 2015

Gorgeous cosy house in a beautiful setting. The host was away so we were dealing with their neighbour Karen who was very accommodating and helpful, telling us all about the house but also the area and asking if there was anything we wanted to do over the wknd. The house actually looks better in person to be honest and it's got everything you could need! The steps down to the beach are great and when lit up at night it looks amazing! The neighbourhood is quiet, all residential, the house is well fenced off so you don't have to interact with the outside world. This was my first time doing AirBnB but i'll book again soon because it's so easy to organise and I love that you have the whole place to yourself with houses like this. Thanks Paul and Laura, we loved your place! :)

LeanneSeptember 2015

The experience of staying at this home was even better than expected. The house is situated on a small hill with direct access to the beach. The views from the home are simply amazing! It was perfect for our group of six people and one child. Paul, the owner was on site in a small cabin on the beach and was available to us if we needed him. He was very helpful and he also gave us lots of privacy. We also managed to get out running with him a few times! We also had a campfire on the beach on our last night there. Plenty of trails and tidal pools to explore, the four year old in our group had plenty to do. The home has three bedrooms, one of which is definitely prime - it's upstairs with a east view, amazing view of the ocean. Great quiet location. Amazing experience, would definitely stay again!

AlicjaMay 2015

We loved this cozy ocean view home! It is exactly as described and pictured. We were very comfortable, there was everything we needed there, and Laura was very helpful when we couldn't find something. It was very easy to find, in a quiet neighbourhood. We had the master bedroom and the view was spectacular. The other rooms were great too, you can't hear much from the rest of the house in them. It was a great place to get away for the weekend, and we wished we could have stayed longer... and would like to return soon.

KathleenAugust 2015

This home certainly ranks among the bests that we ever stayed in. It was spatious, stylish, comfortable, well-equipped and the views from the living room, the office and the maser bedroom (watching sunrise from your bed!) were fantastic. The two other bedrooms were small, but adequate. The access to the beach was a long steep stairway.

A home away from home with an incredibly comfy loft bedroom, a private covered deck with a BBQ, access to sit around the fire pit in the evening. It's a whimsical space that welcomes you and your pet. Close to the beach for long walks, lots of hiking trails in the area. It's an artist or writers paradise, you will find lots of inspiration here. Great eating spots nearby, coffee shop, grocery store within walking distance. You won't want to leave!

Leah was amazing, we absolutely loved our stay at the cabin. We are already planning our trip back! The place was spotless and so cozy, we didn't wanna leave. Highly recommend this lovely getaway, it was close enough to adventure on Hornby island and do nearby hikes. The coffee shop down the street is great too!

CharlotteSeptember 2016

Firstly I would give more than 5 stars as Leah went above and beyond our expectations. Upon arrival we received some fresh fruit and coffee for our stay. Since we happened to be there for thanksgiving weekend, she graciously slid us over some amazing turkey!!! The cottage was adorable and very clean. It was stocked with everything we needed for cooking as well. It had the Most comfortable bed ever. Be careful you won't want to leave this place ever! We had fires at night under the stars and enjoyed Leah, Bredan and Cujo's company. They offered us all the privacy we needed but we truly preferred to spend our time chatting with them. Boswer is a nice spot. Right by the ocean and secluded enough for our liking but 5 mins from a cute cafe' and some nice little shops. We will definitely return here when we go back to the island. You won't find anywhere more comfortable.

christyOctober 2016

The cabin was more amazing than I could have imagined! Leah gave great direction, left the red and green nautical lights on for us, and someone was there to greet us. It was stocked with fruit, cookies, popcorn, bread, butter, eggs, cream, milk, coffee, and tea to our amazement. The property is serene and peaceful a perfect place to sleep in. We brought extra pillows because there are never enough when you go to hotels but we didn't even need them because Leah stocked the bed with five extra cushy ones. Did I mention the bed was the most comfortable thing I have ever slept on. The yard is like a magical fairy wonderland with fun paths to explore and a gorgeous covered fire pit complete with cushioned rocking chairs, umbrella if needed, and wine bottle opener. Leah is on top of communication and responds to your messages faster than I could ever expect. Both Leah and Brenden were superb hosts helping us out whenever we needed it and just wonderful to chat with around the fire. The neighbourhood is lovely! It is only a short walk to the beach where you can watch sea lions swimming by and explore the shoreline for shells. Tidal Treasures Vancouver Island is doing Find it Keep it just up the road in Deep Bay where you can find hidden glass items and potentially win prizes. It is close to a lovely market where you can buy some delicious bread and produce, a restaurant and coffee shop in case you don't feel like cooking, and some beautiful stores selling some gorgeous pieces made by local artist. Oh and did I mention it is pet friendly. This was my first time ever using airbnb and I cannot say enough good things about it. Way more comfortable than a hotel. I cannot wait to go back!
